It's time to get back in an empire state of mind. Or, an empire state of wives.

Whether it's a gender-bending Oscars moment with Billy Porter or an unforgettably unique runway show, the Bravo's Project Runway mentor is known for creating waves in the fashion industry. And there's one Siriano design in particular that caused a bit of a stir amongst Real Housewives.

When you have a budget of £65m to design the interior of your home, the sky is really and truly the limit, and that was certainly the case for Real Housewives star Dawn Ward and her company.The interior designer, along with her team at Arista Interiors, was tasked with the mammoth challenge of decorating Phones4U billionaire John Caudwell's mega mansion, who is also a close personal friend.

The OC may be abuzz with the news of Tamra Judge's departure from The Real Housewives of Orange County, but this may not be a goodbye forever, according to Andy Cohen.

Orange County has seen enough change — for now. Emily Simpson, Shannon Beador, Gina Kirschenheiter, Kelly Dodd and Braunwyn Windham-Burke have all been asked back for season 15, a source exclusively confirms to Us Weekly.

She burst onto the scene in the eighth series of The Real Housewives of Cheshire and certainly ruffled a few feathers with some of the other cast members on the show.The 31-year-old immediately clashed with fellow housewife Tanya Bardsley, after Hanna befriended Dawn Ward, who Tanya was not on good terms with at the time of filming.

The Real Housewives of Cheshire stars Hanna and Martin Kinsella have opened up about starting a family and have revealed they want a total of “four kids” despite a fleet of business to look after. Speaking to new magazine, the couple spoke at length about having babies three months after their stunning wedding.

Tamra Judge has no bad blood with Real Housewives Executive Producer Andy Cohen, 51, despite being let go from the Real Housewives of Orange County. The 52-year-old accepted his Jan. 27 Instagram live request to jump in and talk for the first time since she announced on Jan. 25 that she was “sad to go” and “moving on” from the show. After the announcement, she quit following all of her former cast mates on social media, and Andy himself.  Now she’s explaining why she did it.

Andy Cohen opened up about Tamra Judge’s decision to leave The Real Housewives of Orange County after 12 years on the Bravo series, calling the exit “very dramatic.”

Tamra Judge won’t be returning as a Housewife to The Real Housewives of Orange County. The longtime cast member, who joined the show during Season 3 and has appeared on a total of 12 seasons, took to Instagram to formally announce her decision.

In a major cast shakeup, The Real Housewives of Orange County will lose not one but two of its longest-lasting stars next season. Both Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge have each announced that they will not return to the hit Bravo series.
